Which Star Wars Film Makes the Best Action Movie? (thanks to David Reddick, Nathan Hamill, and all who took part)

…e comparison is quite an honor considering that Princess Leia was the only Star Wars character to hit every target she ever shot at over the course of three movies, even if it sometimes took more than one shot. (We’re taking Carrie Fisher’s one on that one.) Princess Leia vs. Action Flick Chick by David Reddick David Reddick – who gave our heroine’s Action Chick avatar her first webcomic appearance via The Legend of Bill cameo not long before Katr… Continue reading

I started working on a documentary about Adam and realized what a crime it was that he hasn’t been recognized in any official way for his years of hard work. The two projects just naturally merged into one super project to try to use the Star to tell Adam’s story and to use the film to help him get a Star. Alex: How long have you been working on this?… Continue reading

…nd when Del Rey took over the novels license from Bantam. Two years ago at Star Wars Celebration V, a seemingly off-hand mention that another X-Wing book was in the works garnered excited whoops from the fans in attendance at the Del Rey panel. After a thirteen-year wait, stories about X-wings and their pilots are returning in force to the galaxy far, far away, with last week’s release of fan-favorite Aaron Allston’s latest book, Mercy Kill.

being-human-american-version-0

…rally, during his Q&A session, the topic of Disney acquiring the rights to Star Wars and planning to make more films came up. There’s a lot of fear about what will happen to the beloved franchise, to which Witwer made some excellent points: First gut reaction is fear, because Star Wars were independent movies. You don’t think of them that way because of the large scale but they were independent movies…with budgets of 200 million dollars! The momen… Continue reading
